Oh shit I completely forgot this came out today and it looks pretty damn awesome.
Is this something I should get? I wasn't a huge fan of men of war's play style but I love total war and lots of other rts's.

Why does money transfer have to be sooooo tedious. (Anyone got any experience using paysafecards with steam? I think I might start using those since it's just pick up a card and enter it in steam, none of that wait period bullshit)

Holy fuck the Airport singleplayer level is frustrating. Slowly get everything instakilled as the enemy shits out T-72s and one infantry squad in a building shuts down everything I send at it, including artillery and fire-ground helicopters.

has anyone ever had a bug where the unit icon is in the wrong place? it seemed to happen to me aften my units got into a roadblock moving though a town, once it happened it was almost unplayable as units were not grouped anymore and finding half of them to resupply them was impossible

I'm still not sure if this game is something for me and my friend. I'm used to playing very micro dependant games, like Men of War and Company of Heroes, and then again, mostly in singleplayer. I would love to get good at MP in this game, because it simply looks awesome.

So how is the singleplayer campaign so far? And do anybody have a link to a review of the game?

It gets even worse in the Polish oil refinery mission as the enemy seems to get free UH-1 gunships with an infinite fuel script.

How well would mechanized infantry and arty work? As a kinda mobile defensive line.

Well yeah, infantry can only be bought in APCs/IFVs/helicopters. But its pretty much a requirement on any map with urban or forest areas, or even hills (hint: all of them) to have some infantry. Infantry in cover can annihilate tanks at close range.

Chasseurs FAMAS are easily the best infantry in the game, points vs stats.
